A Peppers question

Sorry for another Peppers thread.........but......

Just read the nice post/thread by the Bears fan. Got me to thinking about Peppers again. And then thinking about him and the Bears...that brings up Cutler, brings up INT's brings up Jake.

That got me to wonder....does Pep disappear when the offense sucks (such as the Arizona playoff debacle?)

Seemed like Pep was a beast when Moore was playing QB last year. So, does good offense get you good Peppers' effort? Does he lose interest if the O is not producing?

Is there a correlation here over time?

He was probably pumped once we had a QB that quit shoving the defense out on the field. I remember him running out to high five Moore I think during the giants or vikings game.

But I also think peppers started playing well at the end of the year to get potential employer's potential.

If he had started that earlier....he might have broken some records....meaning $$$$$$. Most playing for contract this year guys start sooner.

I think like all players, the more you play the more tired you would get. So ya I think the less he played the more he could put out on the field.

The whole disappearing argument is stupid cause no one can dominate everyone every play in a game.

He will always be a panther in my eyes and I hope he retires as one.

pep ran down the field when somebody broke a long td and started to show emotion after the helm was turned over to matt.so i think you might be on to something.i would have rather he stayed but, the owner didnt.remember you dont let valuable players walk away from your team.

he was insanely expensive though. I'd rather pay the guys who want to retire here like TD.

We wouldn't be getting our money's worth anyway, him staying would make him sad and then he would never give 100%.

Pep showed up the 2nd half of last season because he needed to show he could still play and put up #'s. Just like he did towards the end of the season prior.

Sadly I think the Bears will get Peppers we saw his first three years here. The bears will get that Pep for maybe one or two season and that will be it.

Yes, he shut down when the Panthers got down. Will he do that with the Bears? I guess if it happens week after week, he will be at the bank by November. Who knows with Cutler, he doesn't have Tommy Jone to blame for peaks sake!

I'm fully prepared for Peppers to have a big year, he's going to feel the need to prove himself for the first time in a long time.

My guess is that he will start off big, but the rest of the year depends on the offense. If Cutler is Cutler again.......

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
